Braids are generally seen as an outdated style, but Kawhi Leonard has been rocking them and just won NBA Finals MVP. Maybe Towns is trying to capture some of that Kawhi braids drip for the upcoming season.

The 23-year-old center is entering his fifth season in the league and coming off back-to-back All-Star selections. Towns has averaged 22.3 points and 11.9 rebounds per game during his NBA career and is looking to get the Timberwolves back to the playoffs.
